I'm not realy allowed to talk about that yet.... MAYBE some day, but not right now. My job title is "Research Specialist I" and I work for the military as a civilian subcontractor. That is about all that I am allowed to say. Don't worry, the coffee cup is empty, I just forgot to bring it home last month. I noticed it sitting behind my monitor when I was listing the contents of my desktop... ![[LOL]](graemlins/ubblol.gif) actually, wait a second.... OH MY GOODNESS!!! there is something green and slimy crawling up out of the cup! Flee! Run for your lives! Your firearms are useless against it! ![[Eek!]](images/icons/shocked.gif)
